Absolutely.


Ah, I think I get your meaning. While there may have been divine punishment after life ...

No, that is not my meaning.

... there needs to be justice in earth as well for the sake of the living.

Says who? However, the real issue there is to first understand what was actually/really going on, and to then also come into agreement with Yahuah, Himself, about that as well as about what justice (or even tribute) is truly due whom. :wink:

That is an absolute fact, but be careful since that fact does not guarantee accuracy of those descriptions.

Another fact, but now *that* fact does not guarantee accuracy of our *understandings* of things experienced.

In my experience, people should just read the words of ... and feel the spiritual peace they want, the help and guidance. And just follow the parts that feel good.

It sounds to me like that might be "safe" in a "state of heart" such as you seem to have, but that kind of thinking can be very dangerous for a utilitarian.

i ihink you can trust your feelings with spirituality/god.

Yes, and long are they are not mental ones.

A person who "feels" things and is in touch with wanting to do good for people feels God imo.

You bet. He blesses those who bless others.
